Balancing Work and Running: An Interview with School Teacher and World Class Runner Matt Elliott
Matt Elliott holds one of the most inspirational stories in running history. A 4:42 miler out of high school, Elliott broke four minutes for the mile a few years after college in 2011, and in 2013 ran 3:36 for 1500m (equivalent to a 3:52 mile) and missed qualifying for the World Championship team by literally a split second.
He graciously spent a Saturday afternoon to talk to us about balancing a full time job and the rigors of that life with a full time training schedule. Here’s what we’re going to talk about:
Being smart with your limited free time, and the importance of grabbing a few spare moments to enhance recovery times.
Staying focused and consistent with your training over a long period, and being patient.
